Why are the bulldogs allowed to just throw the ball every time they get tackled, it's not even subtle.

All except redpath that is, he just pisses himself, drops the ball and screams for a holding free

Before, after, or in the same section as the Crow Throw (TM)?

Crows were lucky the umpires bailed them out with a soft free after loving that up by playing on

I'm not entirely convinced Walker meant for him to go into the post, but that's more based on walker not having that kind of reputation

You really can get away with anything in the name of sheparding a goal through, can't you?

Well yeah, umpires already barely know what they're doing thanks to constant rule changes and the need for interpretation.

You'd reckon the lack of players charged with war crimes is a testament to that, wouldn't you BT?

I mean you'd have to be pretty naive to think that it was an accidental push to the Bulldogs player who has been targeted for the last month now.

In a tackle no less. Umpires want to leave the ground alive I guess

Nutsngum: Oct 9, 2004; I don't think it's nice, you laughing.

I am really starting question Champtiondata and how the gently caress they interpret tackles. The dogs apparently laid 75 tackles that game but their pressure was loving garbage and I barely saw one that even came close to impacting the player. I really wonder if its drat subjective.

I would like to point out that Carlton kept the Crows to two goals last weekend.

I copped poo poo earlier this year in other places saying the Bulldogs flag while great was a fluke and they'll be average this year. I didn't even suspect a total collapse of the Hawks and Swans at the start of the year but my statement still stands.
